Every island hides its secrets. You just have to look closely enough. 🌿

This is a close-up of my new Emerald Islands Extension — currently in progress. The beach alone took longer than I expected : a pink starfish half-buried in the sand, a seagull watching the shore, two skull totems marking the boundary of islander territory, a snake coiled silently in the undergrowth, a blue duck hiding in the vegetation, butterflies scattered through the flowers, and somewhere behind the trees — the warm glow of a fire that never goes out. 🔥

The density of hidden details is something I push further with every new build in this universe.

This extension connects seamlessly to the existing Emerald Islands Atol modular system — Paradise Cove, Flower Lake, Canoe Makers Camp, Carved God Waterfall — and expands the island with a new section of jungle and beach.

Building instructions coming soon on Rebrickable.

How many hidden details can you spot? 👇🐍

So I built not long ago this MOC of The Flying Dutchman. I am struggling to begin the string rigging... Is it possible doing a nice job with only a string with this starting point or I need to change something?

This is a comparison of the original Islanders sets to my tribute designs for BDP series 11. The pieces are limited so it was challenging to recreate this theme while updating it with modern techniques and elements.

Please vote for ALL of the Pirate themed designs on BrickLink - last round of BDP we got a bunch of buildings, we need some variety… and more Pirates!

Just filter by theme and select “Pirates” to see all the entries!

Live now on the Bricklink designer program for voting, “Curse of the Yucatan” is live for a chance to become a real Lego set with enough votes!

Moria is more or less done, only needs a face, and is still unsure how to paint it (what eyes to give him). Brook needs his body painted, but his head is fully painted by me. The shadow bats will also get faces painted.

I don't think we ever get Lego Thriller Bark sets. The live action won't reach that arc, i belive tbh... so I decided to make my own! The design of Brook is based on Noah R.'s design on Instagram and gecko morias design is based on 13cool2 on rebrickable. I may update some joints that are a bit loose. His shoulders are not that secure, and his feet have a tendency to fall off, too. His arm is a bit weak to hold his scissors, unfortunately, but in some angles, it works, I imagine changing the joints out for lightsaber blades or even mixle joints and 1x1 hollow studds and maybe secure the shoulder better.

Laboon is based on the moc from MESsemble on rebrickable. Just changed colors and gave more lively eyes. Shanks is my upgrade ideas, painted the amputee arm white, and gave him a black collar and the highwaymen cape with the Quartermaster legs to be more true to the manga. The sword may be changed to another design later.

I know customs aren't very popular with some people.. but I hope you guys can appreciate some pirate related stuff.

Ps: The davy jones crew project will continue as soon as my burnout has ended, and I finally get some inspo.. I've got a lot of stuff on my backlog

that needs some care.

Have a wonderful day shipmates!

From my collab with BrickyBrick82, “Snake Rock”, for the BDP Series 11. A lot of nice techniques and playability!

Just thinking of alternate builds for my blue coats, I made 15 sailors. But no ship for them to… well, sail. Because I’m not buying the official one, we can all get behind that. Any idea, I’d love some inspo!

My "Captain's retreat" for BDP11 is waiting for your support! If you like it make sure to give it your vote here :

Thank you!!

I recently rediscovered mine and my sibling’s old Lego collection in my parents' basement and decided to build a display frame using pieces from the pick-a-brick at my local Lego store. The build matches the size of a 24x30 cm frame almost perfectly and I use the glass from the frame (but removed it for the photo because of the reflections). Now I’ve got some of my favorite minifigures displayed next to my desk in my home office (the wife isn't the biggest fan).

Hey everyone, I wanted to share a major update I’m hoping to have published soon for my LEGO Idea for “Hook”! You all were so thoughtful with your feedback the last time I posted that I really wanted to share these new images here (kind of nervous to see what you all think). I’m hoping to have these live on LEGO Ideas next week but figured I’d give you all a major sneak peek!

I completely revamped the Jolly Roger and Nevertree, which took months to do!

The back of the Jolly Roger is really screen accurate with the movie now and I made some major updates to the Nevertree to capture the feeling it is the Lost Boy’s hideout. I really think both are a major improvement!

I would love to hear your feedback and opinions! I’ll also share the LEGO Ideas link in the comments if you’re interested in supporting!
